We are not a scent-free facility since some practitioners use scented oils or products. The soap and lotion available for clients in the bathhouse include unscented options. The soap in the showers is castile soap with a coconut base. The scented soap option contains essential oils and no chemical fragrances. We encourage clients to come scent-free to help us create a space that is welcoming to all.

COVID SAFETY

Our building has a HEPA air filter in the lobby and some practitioners have air filters in their rooms. If you would like your practitioner to wear a mask during the session, please let the front desk know.

PRACTITIONER APPOINTMENTS

Some practitioners are able to offer accommodations such as lowering the massage table, chair massage, clothed massage, not using scented products, assistance walking to / from appointments, and assistance getting dressed / undressed. We also have weight capacity information available for many of our practitioner’s massage tables. If you have access needs for your practitioner wellness session, please let us know in advance so that we can work with you to find a practitioner who is able to meet your needs.
